Comments about ‘Bennett says McCain should choose Romney’

Romney would be a perfect solution to balance out the GOP ticket, I would have rather had Romney be the nominee, but hey.

I'm with you Sen. Bennett. Get Romney on the ticket. Someone like Huckabee will not bring anything to the ticket that McCain does not already bring himself. Condi Rice has too much baggage from 911 and the Iraq war. Arnold S. cannot run because of the Constitution and Rudy G. is too liberal and now wants to be governor of New York. Romney is the man.

Amen

How about Ron Paul for a running mate? He's the man that has spent his career serving the people of the United States and defending the Constitution. He's never voted to raise taxes and doesn't play the foolish political games that will ruin American!

Amen!!!

Romney would be a great man for the job, unfortunately there are so many people who belong to hate churches who have been taught (and continue to teach) falsehoods about the LDS church, that having Romney on the ticket might actually alienate that ultra conservative base McCain would hope to be reaching with Romney as a running mate.

Exactly, Absolutley, Correct, Right On!

Good for you Senator Bennet.. a voice of reason.

Thanks for saying McCain should choose Mitt Romney, you are correct! Keep telling him.

This is the only way I will vote for John McCain.

McCain and Romney!!! Two powerful political figures who can take the White House in November. Go for it McCain!! Romney is your man!!

Yeah, give us someone on the ticket worth voting for. Even if he is a VP.

It is the duty of all right thinking Utah people to vote for the Romney/McCain ticket. Ignore the fact that Mitt was in favor of the right to choose, and that other thing with people of the same sex. Ignore the fact that he flip flops around like a fish on dry land to get elected. Mitt is one of us. He looks like us, the thinks like us, he reads the same books, is the same religion, and dresses like us. So therefore Mitt deserves the support of every right thinker from Utah. Not only that, Mitt served bravely in the military, as did all of his sons, earning numerous war medals in their hazardous battles in Iowa. He is also a born hunter, as he told the NRA. Well, maybe not a hunter, but he did shoot an air rifle once. He's also rich. And as we all know, all rich people are righteous. Yes, Mitt is the one mighty and strong who will lead this country with McCain by his side. Thank you.

It is a sad commentary that Mitt Romney, Senator Bennett, and Governor Huntsman are more loyal to the Republican Party than they are to the Constitution of the United States.

Also, it is strangely ironic that so many accusations are being lodged alleging religious discrimination against Mitt Romney.

If Mitt Romney were indeed true to his espoused religion, he would boldly stand by our sacred divinely inspired Constitution of the United States and inalienable rights, which are basic tenets of the Church of JESUS CHRIST of Latter-day Saints.

Unfortunately, Mitt Romney ignores the Constitution, and never even mentions it.

Further, he openly proclaimed his embarrassment concerning his polygamous ancestry and was apologetic about controversial historic events involving our Church.

So, why should LDS voters owe him anything, or ever trust him with any elected office?

I really don't know who to vote for in this election, but it certainly won't be Obama, Clinton, or McCain, none of whom will ever deign to defend or promote the Constitution of the United States or inalienable rights, despite their having publicly sworn before God, a solemn sacred vow to do so.

I love how people are self-promoted Constitutional specialist, especially when it comes to spotting someone who doesn't support it. The Constitution is an incredibly complicated document because it isn't an absolute list of do's and don'ts.

My guess is the same people who believe our Constitution is so simple and black and white are the same people who believe that is it right to be given correct principles "to govern [ourselves] by." Yet they see no irony in the two attitudes.

Your comment made me laugh. I don't think the people who claim that no politician follows the Constitution actually know what the Constitution has in it.

I think having Romney on the ticket will make a good balance for McCain. Romney knows money, which is something we need right now to get our country back on track. I would have voted for Romney first if he had not stopped, so if he gets on the ticket for V.P. I will certainly vote for McCain. There appearances together even look like they would make a good team! Go for it McCain!!!!!!!

Oliver, Et Alii:

Where in the World did you ever get the idea that the Constitution was "an incredibly complicated document"?

Perhaps, you're being sarcasticly humorous?

The Constitution of the United States is actually a very simple document, which any ordinary citizen can easily comprehend.

Have you studied our Constitution of the United States?

I have thoroughly studied it, have completed academic courses devoted to it, and frequently refer to my copy which I keep handy here in my room at the Ol' Soldiers' Home.

The document is very clear in its absolute prohibitions of federal involvement, and its strict reservation of authority to citizenry and states, even though those specific provisions are consistently ignored, due to the voting public's perpetual curse of ignorance and apathy.

Similarly, the scriptures of the Church of JESUS CHRIST of Latter-day Saints are quite clear regarding our duty to the Constitution of the United States.

There is no ambiguity or mystery in our Constitution, nor in the pertinent exhortations found within our scriptures.

So, since none of the Republican Party nor Democrat Party candidates will uphold our Constitution, who is there left for us to vote for in the Presidential election?

Am I the only one who thinks that Johnny Mac just plain HATES Mitt? He sure seemed to take particular delight in knifing him in the back at every opportunity when Mitt was still in the race.
My guess is that Mitt,being the true party faithful has consented to helping Johnny Mac pick the lock on Utahs campaign contributions cash box. Perhaps there is a slot in the McCain admin,but I doubt it's Veep.Treasury secretary maybe. I figure odds at at least 50/50 Johnnny selects his old pal Lindsay Graham of S. Carolina to fill the ticket,combining a south easterner with the westerner in order to draw in the critical southern vote. It'll be fun to see if the stodgy old white guy can beat the exciting charismatic black guy.

Anyone who supports Ron Paul should have the word "idiot" stamped on their forehead.

Seriously, it takes all of about 10 seconds of brainpower to figure out that Ron is 30 cards short of a full deck. Supporting his efforts puts you squarely in his card game.

I would love Romney as VP, but Born American is right. McCain will want someone to draw on the South. Romney's best shot is a cabinet post (should McCain win), and on with his presidential ambitions in subsequent elections. I hope I'm wrong, I'd love to see 4-8 years of McCain-Romney, then 8 of Romney.

If wishes were fishes....
